The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) faced a massive blow when Sri Lanka and Bangladesh decided to side with BCCI in their bid to move the Asia Cup away from Pakistan. ACC Chief and BCCI Secretary Jay Shah had long made it clear that the Indian team wouldn’t travel to Pakistan for the tournament. Sri Lanka has emerged as an option to host the tournament, with Pakistan’s participation in serious doubt.

PCB had previously threatened to pull out of the ODI World Cup later in India, should BCCI not send a team for the Asia Cup. While BCCI cited the Indian government’s refusal to clear their travel, no such problem should arrive for Pakistan. However, the Men in Green are unwilling to play games at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

The biggest cricket stadium in the world, Ahmedabad is expected to host the India vs Pakistan game and the World Cup final.

“Pakistan may not agree to play against India at Narendra Modi Stadium due to certain reasons,” a source told GeoTV.

Pakistan may wind up playing most of its games in Bengaluru and Chennai for security reasons. Eden Gardens in Kolkata is another potential location. ICC is yet to announce the official schedule, with an announcement expected after the IPL 2023. The tournament kicks off in October.
